Thanks for dropping by Michele! Jay here's the progress- Gears swapped. The older ones have needle bearings which have to get pressed off, they're deleted as per NVG (New Venture Gear)-  Ready to go into housing-  Here's what the inside looks like-  Little bugger earning his keep-  Installed-  Case half installed-  Speedo gear gets lock ring in front and behind it-  Housing-  Don't forget the rubber washer-  Building up shift linkage-  Dude your heep shifts good now-  Tom Woods new lifetime warranteed adapter on Advance Adapters SYE-  ;D ;D ;D |

Jay, I'm shooting for Wednesday to drive, depends on weather I guess. (EB doesn't like the rain on it's "naked" body panels!) I need those bolts too, but I do have a back-up plan if you can't order them. It involves drilling and cutting heads on old bolts (Sticks gave me the idea with his latest pics!) but we still need a couple more Skyjacker-type bolts plus regular head bolts. Let me know what you got.
